Chestnut Hall Ghost Investigation

Built in 1862, Chestnut Hall in Thorold, Ontario has seen a diverse past....

Currently the home of the Thorold and Beaverdams Historical Society, this builiding was built for John McDonagh, a lumber merchant who served as Reeve of the Village of Thorold from 1871 to 1874, then as Mayor of the Town of Thorold from 1881-1884. McDonagh's widow left the house to St. John's Anglican Church, which used it as a manse for a few months before selling it in 1920 to the Great War Veterans' Association (later the Canadian Legion). Chestnut Hall has also housed the former Town of Thorold Municipal Offices and the Regional Health Department.

Currently it is the home of the Thorold and Beaverdams Historical Society and the Thorold Museum as well as forming part of the Thorold Public Library (from www.tbhs.ca)

Beyond Ghosts Canada's preliminary investigation found shadow movement, voices in real-time and on EVP, fast-moving cold spots, and a sharp tug on a pants leg.

Q&A

Question:	are you going to be hosting another event in the Thorold/ St. Catharines area in the near future? And is this event for the full four hours that it is posted as?
Answer:	At present, there are no further events planned but we do expect to have at least 1 event in the Niagara region later this year. The March 13 Chestnut Hall event is scheduled from 800-midnight but you can leave early if you wish.
